oURER PROBTRTTTONIsTs

1t seems curious thing that people
who profess to be prohibitionists should
aid and assist in having law such as
the Murray law passed, and after its
passage throw every impeachment in the
way Of having its provisions abided by.
Yet this is the case in Emporia and
some other cities of Kansas.
The law referred to is admittedly the
best ever passed in the interests of
temperance, making provision for the
sale Of intoxicants only in such cases
as are generally considered absolutely
necessary, such as for scientific pur-
poses and medical prescriptions. Severe
penalties are provided for violation of
its provisions, in the way of heavy
fines, imprisonment and forfeiture Of
permission to do business as drug
glst.
The law as now in effect allows no
one to sell OF dispose of alcoholic slim
ulants for any purpose whatever, ex-
cept it be a druggist. and he has per-
NIT such as no one in Emporia as yet
has taken out, but applications for
which are now on file with the probate
judge, by nearly every firm in the drug
business in the city.
Each one of these applications for a
permit is signed by at least
twenty-five male freeholders and
twenty-five female citizens Of
good repute, who, in so many words
vouch for the good character of the
applicant and also that he viii hive up
to the restrictions enforced by the law,

several railroads running into the city,
and their connecting lines, which, if
successful, will be made known by
circular in due time.
The past season has been peculiar in
many of its features, and questions of
great Importance to the future welfare
of our State horticulture have forced
themselves upon the consideration
Of the culturist. These will re-
quire careful study. They de-
mand earnest attention and thought in
the discussions which their presenta-
ton will bring forth, that safe conclus-
ions and methods may be reached for
continuation of the great success which
has characterized the past years of the
industry in Kansas.
Methods and means can and must bt
provided to avert such peculiar adver'
stiles as have occurred during the two
years 1886 and 1887. To some of oul
culturists, undoubtedly such methods
have already suggested themselves
the result of careful study, observation
and experimentation.
Such culturalists are not only ear
nestly invited, but urged to meet with
the people at this convention, and con
tribute Of their knowledge for the pub
lie good.

AFTER TEE BAPTLR.

In Lyon county the results of the
election could not have been better had
they been manufactured to order under
the superintendent Of q committee
composed OF our very best citizens,
without regard to party. AS we in

reproachable character, integrity and
capacity. This really is what is most
needed, especially in county election,
where we are all more or less neigh
bors, and where we are each individ-
ually interested in having the Offices
filed by competent men.
The result Of the elections through
out the country is one which gives the
democrats no little reason to feel elated.
It settles the question-so far as such
question can be settled at this distance
of the certainty of Grover Cleveland
being a candidate to succeed himself.
1t also undoubtedly settles the Lincoln
and Grant combination on the part OF
the republican party, and also gives as
surance that the George movement il
not calculated to do the democratic
party near as much damage as had
been thought, as in New York on Tues
day it cast total vote of less thar

George ran for mayor. The republi
cans claim that their voters who wen
OF to George a year ago remaineC
true to him, while the democrat
who joined him then deserted hin
on Tuesday. On the other hand
the prohibition vote has largely in
creased, nearly all Of which, of course
comes from the republican ranks
Taking these two movements into con
sideration, the outlook just at presen
is far from bright for republicanism il
the Empire state.
In Maryland also, democracy trium
pied, against great odds, and with tn
better elements of society and til
right against it. Virginia also add
to the democratic triumph, while il

had for republicanism, and

AS a whole, the democracy hav
much to be thankful for in Tuesday
contests, and the republicans have n
ceived q lesson which will probabl
incite them to renewed efforts to gal

IT does not speak very much for the
influence of the Atchison press when
it is known that the papers were unit
In opposition of w. d. Gilbert, and in
dulged in such abuse of him as seemed
scandalous, and yet he was elected
judge for the second judicial district,
and this in spite of both democratic
and republican opposition. If the
Champion and Patriot are to be be-
Iieved, he is aman unfit to to be spoken
TO by any decent person. But this
seems incredible in face of the fact
that he is elected by about fifteen

BECAUSE the Associate Press reports
that New York had been carried by
the democracy, and therefore we
thought Cleveland was almost certain
to be candidate for reelection to the
presidency, the Republican says THE
NEWS is mugwump. Neverless, we
viii still continue to publish the news
as we obtain it, without any attempt
to misconstrue it or mislead our read
ers. That the wish should be father to
the thought is sometimespermissable.
But whether a newspaper should al
low its prejudices to distort actual
facts, and thus cheat its readers, is
questionable, to say the least. When
the prohibition vote is much larger and
the labor vote much smaller, and
the democratic majority quite large, it
takes pretty good figuring to make the
New York election a victory, for the
republicans. Yet this is what this
Repub Iican attempts to do

THIS mornings Republican makes
some very labored attempts to twist
the election returns in such a manner
as to make them look more favorable
for the republican party than they ac-
tually are on their face. This may
possibly be the best policy from par
tisan standpoint, but is it really the
correct policy from newspaper stand
point? Would it not be better to ac-
knowledge the truth as the Associate
Press reports give it, and plainly state
that by the loss of New York the re-
publican party has obtained
an extremely elegant black
eye, and that Grover and his friends
are the parties who put it on, unless,
possibly, as has been insinuated, the
influence of the man from Maine has
been used to down Grant, fearing that
his success would have shelved the
chance of the former for nomination.
In any case but little consolation can
by any process be twisted out of the
late returns, the republicans having
virtually gained nothing in any place
where gain would be of any material
benefit, except New Jersey, and having
lost heavy in New York, the acknowl-
edged battle field when both were
straining every effort to gain avictory.
Better tell the truth, governor, and give
your readers advice to buckle on the
harness for stronger and better effort
next year, instead of lulling them into
carelessness by suppositiOnal
victory,
